For the last 3 yrs, it has been me and His Majesty, until yesterday that is.
My friends/neighbors who use to own this house, contacted me.
A friend of HERS had two 6 wks old kittens, basically born feral, that the mama had stopped feeding.
This lady already had cats inside and couldn't care for any more, so they appealed to me.

↑this grainy image was all I had to go on, and first I said now (♫♪I got some plans for tonight, but then I stopped and said, alright♫♪)
So now I'm a 3 cat household. His majesty hasn't quite come to terms with it yet.

It has been one photo op after another. I had to get up around 2:45 and feed them, stepped on one small poop pile right after I got up

That's one way to get pussy in your pants👿

I bought this bed for His Majesty, who has never even deigned to walk across it, let alone lie down in it.
It has a new owner now, or a pair of them

Sleeping on a sweat rag just to the left of my feet this morning. His majesty came in as he usually does that time of day, walked between my legs rubbing me, then coming face to face with a sleeping kitty. He growled and spat and quickly left the building.

Is Sylvester, he also likes to be in constant contact with me.
After snarling at sleeping Felix, I got Sylvester and went outside.

The first part showed more progress, but it was too long for my purposes.

These are feral mutts, who knows the parentage, but Sylvester clearly has strong Siamese and Long Hair (Persian?) genes. He is blue, crossed eyes.
I wanna see a video of the guys who milk mama cats to get this

I went searching for the backstory on the two kittens. It's good that you could take them in. I am a sucker for kittens. I keep saying when our two current cats die I won't get any more cats. But don't bet on that.

My mama always swore to that, but always relented when one of us came in with another fur baby

I have two white cats, they also play in the house all day and when I sleep, they sleep with me. It is nice to sleep with them.

If only they would sleep, but instead the one in particular wants to be ON TOP of me, usually under my chin.

I have a great deal of problems FALLING asleep in the first place, if they were up next to me I would roll over on them.
Once they get a little older then maybe
